Gang Gai
Ingredients:
3cupswater
3-5sprigsThai basil
2tablespoonsfish sauce
1/2lbeggplant
1tablespoonred curry paste
1cupcoconut milk
1 chicken breast
I use Thai eggplants, the golf ball size ones. But, they can be difficult to find. Regular eggplants that you find in supermarkets are a good substitute. If you have the Thai eggplants, cut them up into quarters. If you have the regular eggplants, cut them into bite size pieces. Wash and pick the basil leaves.
Cut up the chicken into bite size pieces. If you have this dish in Thailand, you will see that the chicken comes with bones. All parts such as legs and thighs can be used. The bones make the curry more flavorful.
Pour half of the coconut milk into a large pot, over low to medium low heat. Add the red curry paste. Break up the paste and mix it with coconut milk. Stir constantly. Lower the heat if it splatters too much. Add chicken when you see red oil bubbling on top. Stir and coat chicken with curry sauce. Add the eggplant when chicken starts to turn white. Add the rest of the coconut milk and water and the fish sauce. Let it boil until all the eggplant pieces turn dark and tender. The longer you boil the curry, the thicker the curry becomes because the eggplant disintegrates and thickens the sauce. Add the basil leaves just before you serve and make sure the leaves are submerged quickly in the curry to preserve the color.
Serve hot with rice or rice noodles.

in case you have comfortable style buds it relatively is relatively helpful to furnish the curries a bypass, they are gorgeous yet tend in the direction of the nice and cozy section. seem for issues like spring rolls they regularly contain a scrumptious plum sauce dip or a candy chilli dip. nevertheless seem for the peanut satays (purple meat or poultry) they are very tasty, you have have been given to consume some to sense finished. Thai Pad is likewise advantageous yet you ought to ask for the factors as a results of fact there are some variations ( prawns/poultry, garlic, egg, sprouts, eco-friendly onion and noodles) . seem for dishes which have Basil interior the identify, there are chillis in those yet they have a tendency to be milder on the palate. some restuarants do a deep fried fish which sounds relatively oily yet isn't, it relatively is beautiful and is often served with a coconut sauce.
